His actual words were, apparently "Londoners won't pay a penny more
for their travel in 2020 than they do today."

Oh

"Londoners won't ..."

Does that mean that visitors (including those from the rest of
Britain) will?

As it would be unlikely he was promising to freeze the cost of
outboundary travelcards, those who buy inboundary ones are probably
mainly "Londoners".

Though if the cost of outboundary travelcards increases too much it
could become cheaper to get a 'London Terminals' and use Oyster within
London. More likely to happen if you stay within zones 1&2 or only
travel on busses and trams.

It's already cheaper to use Oyster from many outboundary stations. The
travelcard add-ons vary hugely in price.
